The taste is phenolic-spicy and yeasty with a strong yet smooth sweetness. Some dried fruits and a fresh-tart touch of rhubarb. The body is quite weak for the strength. Alcohol emerges and grows in the aftertaste. The sweetness is milder, making room for clean bitter notes, some more tart fruits and matured cheeses. Wheat flour in the finish.

The carbonation is strong; the bubbles very small. The liquid is a bit sticky.

An OK brown Belgian ale. A bit thin. I thing it will gain enormously of a few years in the cellar.

T: Some wheat? - ripe bananas dominates the taste at first, but then there's yeast and spices. Sour.

M: Aftertaste is sour and slightly bitter. Body is full and carbonation is low.

O: Quad is a very complex and difficult style, this time the people at Slottskällans doesn't produce anything that stands out. At best this could pass for a standard Quad, but probably that's just me trying to be kind...
